This is the original forum of the Bristol Railway Archive that existed between 2003 and 2013. I finally rescued it after it seemed unrecoverable after a large crash. I have made it available for viewing. It is locked, all posts to the new version please!
Anyone know why I saw a Super Voyager (221 443 I think...) go through the crossing in Avonmouth Village today?
It was early (07.15ish) - I was on my way to get fried breakfast at Andel's Cafe - for a few moments I thought I was still asleep.
Over run engineering works between narroways and Filton maybes??
Every Saturday morning the empty stock for Cardiff goes via Avonmouth and Bristol Parkway (reverse). This is to keep Virgin Bristol drivers route knowledge of the diversionary route.
Ahh cool, thanks for that Alex.
I was a bit shocked as it's the first time I'd seen it - I do go there most Sat mornings for a dose of cholestrol tho mind!
